Gildemeister NEF 480 Retrofit

Hi Andy,

may I ask wich one you are using for the M23 connector pins?

Made some progress this evening. The retainers of the carriage are cleaned and attached. Also I reattached s as bd rewired the cross sled limit switches:

Still waiting for the new oilers to arrive. But there is more than enough I can do while waiting for them to arrive

not much progress since Friday. It's cold in the shop.

I remounted the first limit switch on the carriage. The second needs a lite mit more care

So I took a look at the cabinet an realized that the cables from the connectors weren't numbered, So skipped the idea of connecting them directly and Gabe them an extra wiring terminal.

Not yet finished but enough for today.

You know it’s cold when you need a hear gun to warm up the rubber seals to be able to get the cable trough.

I am looking forward to a bit warmer weather.

Seems as if the cold bothers me more the older I get .

To heat soak equipment , used to make 3/4 inch electrical tube frame and cover it with plastic 50mil thick building foil wrap . Was cheap and easy to drape over the temporary metal tube frame . Added electric heater and a fan . Can also be used for spray painting booth .

When it's freezing don't lick flag poles
